some arbitrarily long list.

It seems that for arbitrary "culture names" the proper solution is start with "Type 1" or "Type 2" fu'ivla aka quoted non-Lojban and cmene (using "me" if needed).  There is no need to coin a brivla unless the word is being used frequently over time, or if there is need to represent a full place structure.

lojbab

They aren't culture names.
